One sick, delusional, hateful SOB (and I'm not talking about Cheney)


I caught this guy on the Colbert Report the other night.

I couldn't believe my ears or my eyes.

Number 1. : I happen to be a liberal and I don't watch obscene things ( gratuitous violence and explicit sex, just to name a couple) on television and I don't go to the theatre to see such things either. I simply do not support entertainment and not much else, if find offensive or distasteful.

Why is it that the cultural warriors have yet to master the remote?

Further, why do they believe that Muslims are so inferior that they cannot decide for themselves what to watch or subject their minds to in some other way?

Does he think the entire world is as much of an unconscious dufus as he apparently is?

Dinesh D’Souza’s Bizarre New Book:

Dinesh D’Souza is at it again.

In his new book, “The Enemy at Home: The Cultural Left and Its Responsibility for 9/11,” conservative ideologue D’Souza blames the American left for Sept. 11.

Here’s how his reasoning goes: The Muslim world is angry at the United States for the moral and cultural breakdown that liberals brought about in this country, and then exported to the Middle East. In addition, the left exhibits an anti-Americanism in its critique of U.S. policy that is quite similar to the worldview of Islamic fundamentalists.

“The cultural left and its allies in Congress, the media, Hollywood, the nonprofit sector, and the universities are the primary cause of the volcano of anger toward America that is erupting from the Islamic world,” D’Souza writes in the portion excerpted on the book’s back cover. “Without the cultural left, 9/11 would not have happened.”

As a fellow Indian immigrant, I have a particular interest in D’Souza. I have been following his work since the early 1990s, when he first made a name for himself with “Illiberal Education,” which lambasted the supposed epidemic of political correctness on campuses by stringing together the worst incidents of this phenomenon and making it seem like an all-pervasive curse across the nation.

He followed this up a few years later with “The End of Racism,” which posited that African Americans suffer from inherent cultural pathologies that keep them down. The book’s take on race was so vile that two African-American conservatives associated with the American Enterprise Institute, Glenn Loury and Robert Woodson, resigned from the think tank in protest over “The End of Racism”.....
